Barman (backup and recovery manager) is an administration tool for
disaster recovery of PostgreSQL servers written in Python. Barman can
perform remote backups of multiple servers in business critical
environments, and helps DBAs during the recovery phase.
Barman's most wanted features include: backup catalogues, retention
policies, remote recovery, archiving and compression of WAL files and
of backups.
